Couple of questions.....

What kind of work pass is your wife on, currently?

Has she ever been on a Work Permit?

If she has, did you request and get a Permission Granted Letter from MOM before you married?

It ain't gonna happen, dork !!

You must get her LTSVP first then live here get it for a couple of years at least 2 yrs then apply PR.
You have done the first bit with MOM, now the second bit, marry and procrate . After that the third bit, PR .

Your wife cannot get PR instantly after marrying SGer. Before it was quite fast but now is different

My wife and I were married for 10 years & had two kids (one of each type) before I managed to get PR. :o

No, you don't need to get her an LTVP. If she is still working on a WP she will stay on the WP as long as she is employed by that employer. If she is here two years after you ROM and is still on the WP, no problem. Just apply for the PR then. No need to apply for LTVP unless she is no longer working.

It's probably not going to happen until you have been married two years. The Gahmen are trying to ensure that the "new' spouse is not getting married only to get the PR and then do a runner as has been done so many times before. They are only looking out for your interests in as much as Work Permit holders are not allowed to apply for PR generally speaking, but once married to a Singaporean then the whole thing changes.

There are some girls here who, knowing that their employment is going to stop, will often try to marry a local guy and doing what is necessary to get that PR to enable them to stay. I'm sure this is not your case, but it's the gahments position, so you will have to work within their constraints.
